Programs are designed to meet appropriate learning standards in a way everyone is sure to enjoy: exploring wildlife, meeting an animal, and engaging in an active learning environment.
Studying Animal Behavior
Classroom Program | Grades 9th-12th
Why and how do scientists study animal behavior? Students will find out the answer to these questions through close observation and data collection of animals in an exhibit and by meeting in animal up-close in a zoo classroom. The tools and discussion will be scaled to the appropriate age level depending on the grade of your group.
Price: $200/class
Exploring Climate Activism
Classroom Program | Grades 9th-12th
Climate change is one of the largest impacts of human activity on the environment and biodiversity. Students will explore how individual, community, and societal behaviors can influence climate change and its impacts. Through an encounter with a live animal in a zoo classroom, interactive activities, and exploration of a zoo exhibit, students will investigate the impact of climate change on wildlife and what actions are needed to promote long-term environmental health.
